:) First.....take everything out of your bathroom cabinet and put it in a box. As you use something, put that back in a diff. box that will go to the trailer. Decide whether you REALLY need all that makeup, etc.
I disagree about taking ALL your favorite pans, etc.....take a large skillet (but not too large for the stove top), and a large saucepan. Any small amount can be cooked in the big pans.....but big amounts can't be cooked in a small pan.
I, too, wear jeans and t-shirts. Honestly, if you're careful, you can wear jeans for more than 3 days.....:) :) just don't mention it to those around you.
You only need one towel......unless you really believe you can use a towel only once without washing. If that's the case, you need to buy a bigger rig. I keep one set of sheets on the bed....no extras.
I agree with the extra clothes for different temps....on this trip (all winter), we've needed clothes for 40 deg weather and 95 deg weather. :)
Take only a pair of sandals and a pair of walking shoes or tennis shoes. My GF takes 10 pairs of shoes for a week trip...you do NOT need that many.
Do test runs......put everything you need in the rig, then go camp for a week, even if it's just in your driveway.....that'll help you figure it out.
